My life would suck without you

We're both broken

Maggie got onto the bus. She was dreading going to school today. She tried texting Alex for the last few days but she wouldn't respond. She even tried calling her, but still nothing. She doubt Alex would want to see her today and what luck would she have skipping again? She already skipped Monday and Tuesday.

So she rode in silence.

She ended up forgetting that Jimmy rides the same bus, cause next thing she knows he's walking all the way in the back towards her. Now the only free spot on the bus is next to Max.

"Hey pretty lady." Jimmy spoke with confidence in his voice.

"Hi..." Maggie kept looking out the window.

"Hey baby whats wrong?" Jimmy brought his hand up to Maggie's cheek and moved her face so she was looking at him.

"I-I..." Maggie was lost for words. Jimmy moved in and kissed Maggie on the lips. She had expected Jimmy to kiss her when he walked her home Friday night, not on the bus. She leaned into it though. Excepting it, but not welcoming it. His lips weren't as soft as Alex's or as kind as hers. Maggie was soon dragged from her thoughts and back to reality, when she heard a gasp. She pulled away from Jimmy and looked over. Of course they were at Alex's stop.

When Alex realized Maggie was looking at her she quickly looked away and ducked into the seat next to Max.

"Hey you." Max grinned.

Unfortunately for Alex, Max had his arm across the top of the seat so as soon as she sat down it was over her shoulders.

"Isn't your girlfriend over there? Or do you just want try some of the... fine meat?" Max slid closer to Alex's face as he spoke.

"Ew." Alex simply said and then looked away. "In your dreams trashwell."

"Oh come on. You hurt me Danvers. Plus I don't judge. In fact I think girl on girl action is pretty hot. Also I'm a science guy, I understand that homosexuality is a normal thing. But I prefer not to gawk at two men macking on each other. That's just weird."

Alex looked over at Max with an annoyed look on her face. "Im not gay Max, and two men kissing isn't weird. You're just an ass"

Max shook his head before he spoke. "Listen Danvers, you're right about one thing. I may be an ass, but It's obvious you got the hots for cute little Sawyer over there. But if you ever change your mind the hot meats will be here." Max pointed at himself with a little wiggle of his eyebrows.

"You know you aren't as bad as I thought Lord."

"I know, I know. Im a changed man. Now, which do you like more, boobs or ass?" Max asked curiously.

Alex stared at him for a moment. Shocked at the question. "You're unbelievable!" Alex looked away from him and instead looked at the seat in front of her.

"I know. I have that effect on women. But really which do you like?"

"I am not answering that question. Especially not right now. Im not in the mood to talk dirty."

"Oh I see. You're sad. Well no worries Danvers. I can take a hint."

"Can you?" Alex leaned forward and rested her head on the seat in front of her. She swore she could feel Maggie's eyes on her. It didn't help that she was only two seats in front of her, in the opposite row. She kept telling herself not to turn around, but she couldn't help herself. When she did though, she was met with brown eyes. Sad brown eyes. She looked away and leaned against the seat once again.

"So have you heard the rumor?" Max asked. Breaking some of the tension that was building up.

"What rumor?" Alex muffled from the seat.
